Does anyone have any suggestions of good anti fog formulas, I have given the FOGDOC jell ago but wanted to know if there was anything better?

Or does anyone know if the stuff that bikers use on their visors or divers use on their masks would be ok to use on a mask lens?

I have used catcrap which is for bikers on my lenses for years, not perfect but not bad either and I sweat a fair bit when playing

I'm the same, I have been thinking about getting a fan for my mask as by the end of my 4th game Sunday I had to reapply the Fogdoc and even then it was struggling to keep my lens clear and that was a hot day with no humidity

Hello guys, I`ve been playing now this year being my x 33rd year, I also run a woodsball site with a constant flow of customers playing, I show them all how to put on a paintball mask properly !! the top of the mask where the grills are for letting your breath out is too High ? that`s what is stopping your breath to leave your mask quickly, In your hands hold the mask and you will see that when you tilt the mask, the ELASTIC is at a tilt, This is Paramount when putting on a mask, NOT just at the back of the head, Keep that Elastic as high as you can without coming off, put your hand on it so it doesn`t move, then re-adjust the front to make it comfortable on your face, BUT DON`T take that hand off the back, I`ve a 100% dry customers, of course if you have a lot of hair that could block of the vent, Tie a band, string, anything to keep the hair from blocking the vent, > Good advice is to NOT wear any beanie, cap, or hat of any discription on your head, this will contain the heat and only throw the heat forward onto your lense, I`ve been to Soooo many sites that show you how to put a mask on BUT they either don`t know what I`ve posted here about the Angle of mask or too lazy to say, I`ve NEVER been to a site yet that explains properly. You don`t need to put anything on the masks > at all !!

of course if you need to cover your head completely, Then as @Missy-Q says above = use a fan !!

I get really hot when playing and regardless of wearing head protection or not I will steam up.

So for me as I hate getting smashed in the head, which is what normally happens I'm going with the head protection lol.

When it comes to fans is there anything your can recommend?

There are a few out there, but I would rather look at something that has a players recommendation

For fans you can go to expense with a paintball specific fan, or get small 20mm computer fans and wire one or two to a battery and switch

Fans about 10 years ago made a lot of noise for not a lot of air flow. I'm not familiar with the current paintball specific goggle fans, so can't say if they have improved or not
